Treviso and tuscan kale caesar salad is giving the traditional romaine caesar salad a run for its money. Winter is here and we need something a little more robust. Swapping tuscan kale for romaine lettuce is the best transition for winter since we start to crave heavy comfy style foods when the temperature sightly drops. And the purple treviso gives the salad a pop that is eye catching.

This treviso & tuscan kale caesar salad will have you coming back again and again, especially if you make your to own Caesar dressing. Now we know what you are thinking, homemade caesar dressing aka anchovies… Yes, I used anchovies and it’s AMAZING!! I’ll never go back to store bought Caesar dressing again. I made the Bon Appetite easy homemade caesar dressing.

Simple ingredients combined to make a delicious rich salad:

Anchovies

Garlic

Lemon juice

Egg yolk

Parmesan cheese

One thing I love about this salad is you can make it ahead of time. You can make the dressing, prep greens, and make it up to 6 hours beforehand. This allows for the tuscan kale to become more tender and absolutely delightful to eat. Just toss in croutons at the very end.
